The time has come

And as I reach up to the sky

The love will never die



At last it's here

The darkest sky begins to clear

The final hour draws near



But the voices are calling me

Erasing the pain and the fear



So lay me down

Lay me to rest

It's over now 'cause I know

It's the beginning of the end



And so we'll rise

By the grace of God alone

His words are carved in stone



I'm never gone

I'll always be within your heart

Waiting's the worst part

Now the voices are calling me

Soothing me and easing the pain and the fear



So lay me down

Lay me to rest

It's over now 'cause I know

It's the beginning of the end



And I see my life pass quickly by

I am watching

All these years we thought we were so wise

They mean nothing



Walk alone into the dying mist come alive for ever

See the things we've never seen before

Hand in hand together



They galling rays are lighting up the open door

We've all been waiting for

All the voices are calling me

Showing the path that is clear



So lay me down

Lay me to rest

It's over now 'cause I know

It's the beginning



So lay me down

Lay me to rest

It's over now 'cause I know

It's the beginning of the end
